Katie Holmes Will Cash in on Marriage

According to MSNBC Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise have signed a large prenuptial agreement that will leave Katie Holmes sitting pretty if she stays with Tom for a while. Check out the details:

Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes fans may be hearing wedding bells — or maybe the sound of a cash register. The couple reportedly have hammered out a prenuptial agreement that will give Holmes as much as $33 million and that will pave the way for the two to get hitched.

The happy couple and their lawyers have come up with a contract that will give Holmes $3 million a year up to $33 million for each year that she is married to Cruise, as well as a palatial home in Montecito, California, according to Life & Style Weekly. If the marriage lasts longer than eleven years, the contract becomes void and California’s community property law kicks in — giving Holmes half of Cruise’s rather sizeable fortune.

When contacted by The Scoop, Cruise’s rep declined to comment, but an “insider” told the magazine that Holmes’s parents had been trying to get her out of the relationship — but have changed their minds and now want her to marry Cruise. “If she walks now, Tom will fight her for custody of daughter Suri, and Katie can’t outlast him in court,” an insider told the mag. “She knows she needs to marry him to get the money to fight him for custody, if it comes to that.” Thanks Gayla

    Sadly enough she will need to money to fit him and his clut in court if they do indeed wed and she decides to get out and fight for custody of Suri. By the way, why have we seen no pictures of Suri? We have pictures now of baby Shiloh.

    This is all sad, makes ya wonder what’s going on behind the scenes. On the whole pictures of Suri, I don’t think we’ll see any of her for a LONG time if you go by what he wrote the New York Times. He was pretty upset with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.

    This awful poor Katie. I am really on Katie’s side if she needs to do that to get Suri for custody then i think she should do that

    I would love to see where one could find the article you mentioned about what Tom Cruise said about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. I searched on the NYT site and could not find it, but if anyone has a link to it, it would be appreciated.

    there are many articles, I haven’t found it on the NYtimes site yet. Still looking, but it has been quoted in several places:
